FGI recently had a huge short position -- a much bigger percent of the float than any other OS stock. This despite excellent reported earnings. A warning that something was amiss.

George and K: Another point re the FGI shorts .... they were short when I bought in around $10 some months ago, so that they are treading water or even going under so far. This short position leaves me stumped. I have to wonder whether there is not some other reason for the short than that of simply buying back the FGI at a lower price. Damned if I can figure out what it might be. Any suggestions?
